--of someone who's gone to Cornell-Weill for a long time, I think part of the problem with Dr. Latov--who I've had interesting discussions with, By the way--is that he runs the research arm there, and most of the research is dedicating to metabolic (e.g., diabetic) and autoimmune forms of neuropathy. (He's also getting older and suffers from a likely autoimmune neuropathy himself, so that may factor in.)

As for clinicians, I'd probably go with one of the other people running around there if you can (Dr. Chin is my primary neuro.)

I will say, though, that the Cornell Weill people were among the few that didn't treat me like I was a weirdo--or a psychiatric case--with my acute onset body-wide burning neuropathy symptoms, which too many other neuros had.

I'm sorry if you did not have the greatest experience there. It is certainly true that far too many neuropathies show negative on all reasonable tests and remain stubbornly "idiopathic", though hereditary, metabolic, or autoimmune mechanisms are often suspected in those.
